<span>The first number = x
The </span>second number = 2x-3

x + 2x-3 = 36
3x = 36+3
3x = 39
x = 39/3
x = 13

The first number = x = 13
The second number = 2x-3 = 2*13 - 3 = 26 - 3 = 23

In the coordinate plane, line p has a slope of 8 and y-intercept (0,3). What are the slope and y-intercept of line r?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

y  = 8x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line we are describing here is line p;

 slope of line p = 8

  y- intercept = (0,3)

y-intercept of a line is the point where it crosses the y-axis. At this point, the x = 0

So;

  Slope of the line = 8

   y-intercept  =  3

Equation of the line;

       y  = mx + c

y and x are the coordinates

m is the slope

c is the y-intercept

      y  = 8x + 3
